Work with several charsets on web sites is not so simple. Standard Escape javascript function encodes source data in the source charset, charset of page on which you run the javascript code. Especially, if you want to online create links from one site written in utf-8 to another site with charset iso-8859-2, you will need some conversion function.

You can also take a look at URL encoder with new charset sample to test URL in several code pages.
